1)
y = kx
-12 = k(9)
k = -4/3

y = (-4/3)(-4)
y = 16/3

2)
y = kx
8 = 20k
k = 2/5

y = (2/5)(10)
y = 4


3)
y= kx
-6 = k(-14)
k = 3/7

-4 = (3/7)x
-4(7/3) = x
x = -28/3

A rectangle has a length of 20 inches. if its perimeter is 64 inches, what is the area?​
zzz [600]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{  \sf 240 \:  {inches}^{2} }}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Length of a rectangle = 20 inches

Perimeter of a rectangle = 64 inches

Area of a rectangle = ?

Let width of a rectangle be ' w ' .

<u>Fi</u><u>rst</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>finding </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>width</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>a</u><u> </u><u>rectangle</u>

\boxed{ \sf{perimeter = 2(l + w)}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{64 = 2(20 + w)}

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

⇒\sf{64 = 40 + 2w}

Swap the sides of the equation

⇒\sf{40 + 2w = 64}

Move 2w to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{2w = 64 - 40}

Subtract 40 from 64

⇒\sf{2w = 24}

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

⇒\sf{ \frac{2w}{2}  =  \frac{24}{2} }

Calculate

⇒\sf{w = 12 \: inches}

Width of a rectangle ( w ) = 12 inches

<u>Now</u><u>,</u><u> </u><u>finding</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>area</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>a</u><u> </u><u>rectangle</u><u> </u><u>having</u><u> </u><u>length</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>inches</u><u> </u><u>and </u><u>width </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>inches</u>

\boxed{ \sf{area \: of \: rectangle = length \:  \times  \: \: width}}

plug the values

⇒\sf{area \: of \: rectangle =20 \times  12 }

Multiply the numbers : 20 and 12

⇒\sf{area \: of \: rectangle = 240 \:  {inches}^{2} }

Hence, Area of a rectangle = 240 inches²

Hope I helped !

Best regards!
